Review of Miles Ahead (2016)

By Paul Whitington (413) for Irish Independent (461) on 21 Apr 2016

Review of The Huntsman: Winter's War (2016)

By Paul Whitington (413) for Irish Independent (461) on 07 Apr 2016

Badly told and badly made, The Huntsman: Winter's War lacks the clarity and moral satisfactions of a proper fairy tale, and wastes the talents…

Review of The Man Who Knew Infinity (2016)

By Paul Whitington (413) for Irish Independent (461) on 07 Apr 2016

It's all very nice, and pleasant to look at, but Irons' vibrant and colourful performance is this only thing that gives this film life…

Review of My Name Is Emily (2016)

By Paul Whitington (413) for Irish Independent (461) on 07 Apr 2016

Gorgeously photographed by Seamus Deasy, Fitzmaurice's film catches the unhinged passion of the teenage state, and ends as uncertainly as perhaps…

Review of Court (2015)

By Paul Whitington (413) for Irish Independent (461) on 27 Mar 2016

The subsequent trial is absurd, and Kafkaesque, and tells us more about the social iniquities of Indian society than it does about justice,…

Review of High-Rise (2015)

By Paul Whitington (413) for Irish Independent (461) on 21 Mar 2016
